This poem expresses the emotions that I've encountered because of a recent break-up.
My heart is torn asunder,
From the dagger you have plunged,
And I lie here bleeding,
Overwhelmed and keening.

I opened wide my arms,
Yet you fooled me with your charm,
Grinding my heart to dust,
Shattering my trust.

You drank my heart’s well dry,
Barely saying goodbye,
Leaving me in your wake,
As I drown in this heartache.
